Santa Isabel La Real

Granada


Up in the Albayzín, this welcoming small hotel occupies a whitewashed 16th-century home that was once a casa de vecinos (house lived in by different families). Many original architectural features endure, from marble columns to flagstone floors to the fountain-studded patio. Each of the 11 rooms is adorned with embroidered pictures and hand-woven rugs.

Snap up the top-floor deluxe room for its Alhambra views. The owners also have a self-catering casita nearby.
